The most important thing we learned today..

[INTERUNITED]

Was that the players are still 100% behind Chris and the coaching team. I wasn't too sure after the Southampton game, but this puts any doubts to bed. While ever the team backs Chris, we should back them. Fantastic fighting spirit. Big shout out to Bash and more importantly Ramsdale. Definitely a top keeper in there, just a young lad who needs time to develop (without twats on twitter tagging him into their bollox). Great performance today, that's the Blades we know and love!!!

 

[Bobby Boo]

is that we have a decent player in Jaydn Bogle

The only thing I learned today was that come the summer I have a very big decision to make and that is do I want to spend a fair potion of my pension watching a game where you are not allowed to tackle? If I want to do that I can go and watch Basketball/Netball for much less money. If all the diving/cheating and fake screaming hasn't ruined the game then VAR will certainly finish the job. I was particularly dismayed to see a referee surrounded and intimidated by the Brighton players who is in charge of the game today the ref or the players or some knobhead with an agenda sat in an office 100 miles away? I am fast losing any enthusiasm I had for the game I no longer watch games or highlights of other teams, if it wasn't for United I wouldn't give a toss about today's version of the sport.

Any player gang mobbing a ref like that should each receive a card.

Not quite old enough for my pension yet, but old enough to remember if you play the ball its called a tackle. If you play the ball, miss and tap the other player it’s a yellow and if you deliberately go for the other player it’s a red.

What I saw today was a hard but fair tackle, and the cheating cunt Veltman leaving his foot in to get Lunny sent off.

I’m not saying it wasn’t a red by todays rules, I’m saying the rules are shit and Brighton are better at cheating than us.

If Burke had gone down in the area, when he chased the long ball & was being hassled by the defender , he would have deffinately got a penalty, the trouble is he stayed on his feet, we must learn to play the modern way and join in with the cheats, otherwise we will never prosper.
It's not what I would have done, infact when I played you didn't whinge when you got fouled otherwise your own players would have called you out, but it's a different game now and if you want to succeed you have to play to the rules that are imposed on you.

Problem is, when Oil tries it, he hurts himself and goes out for a month .

 

[Bladesman]

We can play a different formation.

 

[Kevincarterversion2.0]

....Is that playing attacking football, with quicker players and the Duffy role is the way forward....

 

[Bladeinleeds]

We have nothing to lose now with playing abit more expansively.

We are almost forced into 3 strikers, given we have almost no midfield options now.

An out of form fleck, an out of form Norwood, Osborn, Rodwell and a converted centreback in ampadu - must be amongst the worst ever midfields ever chosen from in the premier league????

we may as well start with the intent that worked to get us back into the game against Man U and Brighton - rather than Passively waiting to get breathed like the first 30 mins or the Southampton game.
